I really like this 1996 interview with Artdink's Kazutoshi Iida about experimental game design. There's a lot to unpack. One of my favorite bits is how Tail of the Sun was explicitly designed to be an "Anti-Mario" game that was deliberately "un-fun" to play. shmuplations.com/iidakazutoshi/

During this game's development, itamu did something extremely kind to me and inserted a small memento to my best friend who passed away almost two years ago. If you have any interest in this game (AND YOU SHOULD), please buy extra copies for your friends if you can. itamu deserves it so, so much.
